ASMi-450 Installation and Operation Manual

SP PARAMETERS

See parameter definitions in Section 3-5.

SPEED_BPS

Select AUTO whenever feasible. In this case, start the
communication with three Carriage Returns, to ensure
positive identification of terminal data rate.

Note

The automatic baud rate recognition procedure must be repeated after the
DTR line in the control port connector had been switched to OFF and then
ON again.

DATA

Select the required number of data bits (same as on the
terminal).

PARITY

Select the required parity (same as on the terminal).

INTERFACE

Select DCE when directly connected to the control
terminal.

Select DTE when connected to a modem (future
option).

Note

The INTERFACE parameter only changes the direction of the interface
control (handshaking) signals, but not the functions of the interface pins.
Therefore, when connecting to a modem, it is necessary to use a cross cable.
